Epi Ingredients to Launch High-protein Yogurt Concept

Epi Ingredients
is launching a high-protein yogurt concept to inspire manufacturers, according
to a report published September 13, 2018.

This new high-protein
yogurt, which is produced by using ultra-filtered dairy powders, is called as SoBenefik.
The new launch is part of the SoUnik range of finish product concepts. This
range will help food, beverage, and nutrition manufacturers to visualize as to
what can be done using the ingredients provided by the company.

Mathieu Lucot, Marketing
Manager at Epi Ingredients, said, “The goal for Epi Ingredients is not to sell
these concepts. With this range of finished products, we are merely aiming at
driving innovation, showcasing the company’s application expertise and dairy
ingredients know-how as well as promoting the use of our specialty ingredients,
in this case native protein Epiprot 60 UL, in new product developments.”

SoBenefik is a low-fat
yogurt that contains 8 percent protein, live cultures and a rich, creamy
texture. The production of this new yogurt was possible due to the use of
Epiprot 60 UL, a native milk protein concentrate produced directly from fresh
milk through a cold filtration process allowing for minimal denaturation and
optimal functional & nutritional properties.

This product was
developed especially for the end-consumers, as a clean, convenient, and
affordable smart snacking option for increasingly time-deprived modern
consumers. As per the report, 30.4 percent of snacks launches tracked have a
clean label claim (Global, 2017). Moreover, this high-protein yogurt is a healthy
replacement for high energy-dense snacks, as it improves satiety, thereby
reducing the overall calorie consumption.
